IAS, welded sections · Wide Flange (I-beam)
Wide flange beams (W shapes / I-beams) are the most common structural steel profile used in building construction. They are used for beams, columns, and girders in steel-framed buildings and bridges. Designed per AISC 360, Eurocode 3, and NBR 8800.
Put the I 300x170x6.3x9.5 IAS in a real structure
Opens in the 3D editor already set up as a beam, with supports and load. Change the span and the load, then check it against the code.
The I 300x170x6.3x9.5 steel profile weighs 39.3 kg/m (26.38 lb/ft), has a depth of 300 mm (11.81 in), flange width 170 mm (6.69 in). Cross-sectional area: 5,000.3 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 7,981.814 cm⁴, Iy = 778.477 cm⁴.
